Piano Works is Ulléns most ambitious piece so far, a triple CD with solo recordings that reflects the depth and depth of Ullén’s unique musical glance.
Ullén has a precision in his play that makes every tone stand out of the musical painting cloth, even when the image that is drawn is difficult to describe.
Her music moves all the time, runs out in the most unexpected directions, but remains the decision in one place, like a musical variant of Becketts Godot.
“Man skulle kunna droppa referenser som Cecil Taylor och David Tudor. Men jag tänker snarare på hur precis Ullén är i sitt eget uttryck. Hon har en sammansatt tydlighet och tajmning, som i hög grad kommer fram även i det latent explosiva grupparbetet på ”Sekvenser och lager.” Som motstånd betraktat är hennes spel ingen yvig gest, utan ett kontrollerat, för att inte säga virtuost alternativ.”
